Welcome to our retreat in Arusha, Tanzania, where sustainable living meets community warmth. Tucked away in the heart of nature, our solar-powered space is a family home dedicated to creating a modern, eco-friendly lifestyle. Think of us as a blend of a homestay, Airbnb, and community space. Not a commercial setup but rather a place that invites you to be part of a close-knit community in a cozy, undisturbed environment where reflection, creativity, and productivity are available to you.
​
Nestled in lush woodlands just outside the city, we offer an antidote to modern chaos through slow living and travel. As one of the first spaces of its kind in Tanzania, staying with us means you're part of pioneering a fresh, collaborative way of living, working, and traveling. You'll help shape the future of our community by offering feedback, sharing ideas, and contributing to the values that make this space thrive.​
In between retreat seasons, our 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom space is ideal for co-working and co-creating, the perfect environment for like-minded travelers to collaborate, share, and grow. With Arusha being a high-traffic tourism destination, we are reimagining how to experience Tanzania by encouraging slow travel. We welcome digital nomads, creatives, entrepreneurs, traveling professionals, students, and those able to spend extended time here.
​
Picture waking up to the peaceful sounds of nature and starting your day with a nutritious Tanzanian breakfast lovingly prepared by Amina. Enjoy two eggs any style, fresh seasonal fruits, sautéed veggies, homemade bread or pastries, and a choice of masala spiced chai or freshly brewed coffee. This wholesome start fuels your day, setting the perfect tone for productivity. Once the sun sets, gather around the dinner table, by the fire for warm conversations, or in the garden for a night of stargazing.​​
Our space might be a good fit for you if:
-
You value wellness and tranquility but also enjoy weekend adventures exploring the outdoors and local culture.
-
You’re a remote worker, student, or creative professional who thrives in a focused, productive environment and enjoys connecting through shared experiences.
-
You appreciate co-working and co-creating, looking to collaborate on ideas, share projects, and engage in meaningful conversations with a small, intentional group.
-
You’re curious about new cultures and traditions, eager to discover Tanzanian life, and happy to contribute your own experiences and insights to enrich our community.
-
You’re looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and want to be inspired by nature, surrounded by lush woodlands.
-
You want the convenience of not having to worry about daily chores, which we take care of for you with daily housekeeping and weekly grocery shopping, so you can focus on enjoying your stay.
​
Our space might NOT be a good fit for you if:
-
You want a typical hotel experience.
Our space is more of a home and family environment, which invites adaptability and flexibility. It’s less about being waited on and more about embracing the flow of community living and being part of the experience. -
You’re looking for a large or busy community.
We intentionally keep our community small and intimate, hosting just a few guests at a time to ensure meaningful connections and a peaceful atmosphere. -
You prefer fast-paced travel.
We encourage slow travel, inviting guests to stay longer to fully immerse themselves in the local culture, natural surroundings, and community. -
You expect only traditional tourist activities.
While safaris and hiking in Arusha are fantastic, we also organize and encourage cross-country trips or off-the-beaten track adventures to explore the vastness of Tanzania. These are best when shared with a group, which helps keep costs affordable. -
You’re not interested in eco-friendly, sustainable practices.
Our space emphasizes an eco-conscious lifestyle, running on solar power and promoting sustainability in everything we do, which might not align with everyone’s preferences.​​

get to know each other to see if we're a match!
